Basic weighted average shares outstanding for purposes of basic earnings per share are less than the shares outstanding due to 584,700 shares, 564,100 shares and 630,300 shares of restricted stock for 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively, which are accounted for as part of diluted weighted average shares outstanding in diluted earnings per share. The number of equivalent shares that were not included in weighted average shares outstanding assuming dilution, because their effect would have been anti-dilutive, was 176,000 at December 31, 2011 and immaterial at December 31, 2010 and 2009.
